Digitisation and OCR
Industrial history in full text
Company newspapers document everyday working life, technical developments and social change. Digitisation preserves complete historic runs, while OCR makes names, places and subjects searchable in the text.
- gentle digitisation of bound and loose originals
- Image optimisation and consistent file output
- OCR for research and scholarly analysis
- Structured transfer for archiving and presentation
Local history permanently accessible
The digitised sources support exhibitions, research and education. At the same time, digital use reduces wear on the originals.
